There entire SuperPac structure is corrupt, yet accepted and legal. As for coordination between candidates and SuperPacs, it's just a law which is easily ignored.

“Persecuting the opposition for “illegal coordination” has been tried in Wisconsin before. In fact it was not too long ago the Democrats’ favorite tactic in Wisconsin. And now Trump is doing it. Coincidence? Like I’ve said from the outset, Trump is really a Democrat.”

Excellent post.

Rush was pointing out how the Fox gang, Bloody Kelly, Tokyo Rove and Dr Krauthamer were all praising Trump’s strength after the Wisconsin loss.

I’m a Trump supporter who wishes Trump would leave Wisconsin behind. He lost for some good reasons: 1) No ground game in a state where ground game counts, a lot. 2) Very disciplined state Republican party which is firmly in the “Never Trump” camp. 3) Late start in trying to reach disaffected, less political voters. 4) Complacency.

If lessons are learned and acted on it is plus for Trump, if not it’s a wasted learning opportunity.

Trump needs a campaign song:

Boo-Hoo

Boo-hoo
You've got me crying for you.
And as I sit here and sigh,
Says I: "I Can't believe it's true."

Boo-hoo
I'll tell my mommy on you
The little games that you play
The little games that you played
Has made her baby oh, so blue.

And yet the man sues at the drop of a hat. He would here too, if he had even the least bit of evidence for his claim. Conclusion: He’s making it up as he goes along, like most of the stuff he says.

Ted Cruz has repeatedly made false accusations about Trump after primary ay losses. Where are the left wing articles calling him nasty and a sore loser?

I googled "Cruz accuses Trump of cheating." in the news and all I got were articles where Trump accused Cruz of cheating. What is your source?

You could see it coming from the outset though. Right after he said he could shoot someone dead in Times Square and it would do nothing to his popularity you knew he would up the ante until he hit the ceiling.

Trump doesn’t have to sue to prove his complaint, but if Cruz doesn’t sue, then the complaint must be true. That’s how it works, isn’t it?

His multiple statements on abortion made him look foolish also

Trump is still off message.

He is the leader. He keeps getting distracted and using insults and allegations to keep the opposition down. This is leading from behind.

He should have been focussing on what he is going to DO as president.

He does not need to draw more attention to his loss. He needs to point out how well he expects to do in NY and other upcoming primaries.

Right, Cruz is a lawyer and exploits the rules and law to his benefit—like any good sleazebag lawyer. You liked Clinton and Nixon, you'll love Cruz.

Isn't that exactly what Trump uses as his excuse when questioned about the bankruptcy laws? "Hey, those laws are there and I took advantage of them. That's good business."

To some extent, I don't disagree with that. But the point is that the rules are what they are, everyone has known what they are (if they didn't, they're negligent) and so the smart thing to do is to do what you can within those rules. Complaining about someone else using the rules to their advantage is like what you see in a basketball game when some player starts complaining to the ref that he was fouled, and while he's complaining about the no-call, the guy he's supposed to be guarding dunks the ball at the other end.

If Trump wants to win this, he ought to be investing in a good ground game and fighting for those delegates. Complaining about an unfair system isn't going to change anything.

Diarrhea of the mouth is what cost Trump Wisconsin. Trump’s mouth diarrhea effluvia continues to flow as evidenced by his campaign’s non-gracious statement last night.

“Ted Cruz has repeatedly made false accusations about Trump after primary ay losses. Where are the left wing articles calling him nasty and a sore loser?”

That goes into the rabbit hole that is the gap between the ears of Cruz’s fans.

In fact, I’ve never seen one Cruztard actually scream about it.

But the press is letting him get away with it for obvious reasons, so these guys are happy to forget themselves.

Bit the moment they go up against Hillary, then all that ends.

“whenever Cruz, wins a state, that Trump accuses him of winning it illegally.”

Well, at least it doesn’t happen very often.

Brilliant?
Maybe not.

Perhaps it's simply
Occams Razor.

Nobody is so smart as to ignore what works.

Ever wonder how the stoopid party, 50% indolent, ignorant and drugged out, 40% parasitic union "public employees" and 20% criminal elected politicians and cronies getting rich on the public checkbook manage to outmaneuver highly educated and experienced "Republicans"?

In The House, in The Senate, using arcane or invented procedures to destroy any semblance of opposition; during elections, violating election laws or outright fraud?
Creating Executive Orders as an unconstitutional fourth branch of government?

If Trump has turned to the political armory that "enemies domestic" have successfuly used to destroy the GOPe, all I can say is...

More power to the Donald!
GO TRUMP!!

My suggestion to the Trump campaign as a TRUMP supporter.. THEN SILENTLY PROSECUTE IT and QUIT TALKING ABOUT IT.
